Today’s Best Deals

Red Wing Heritage SaleSave up to 66%: Red Wing Heritage boots are a solid example of quality American manufacturing. They feature quality materials like leather from Minnesota’s S.B. Foot Tanning Company, and they utilize time-tested constructions like Goodyear welting. Now at Nordstrom Rack, you can save up to 66 percent on a range of Red Wing Heritage footwear. Nothing costs more than $200 and most boots don’t top $150. If you’re in need of a new pair of durable kicks, don’t miss this sale. — John Zientek

Barbour Duke Waxed-Cotton JacketSave 33%: A lightweight waterproof jacket is a necessity for the spring’s unpredictable weather. Barbour’s classic Duke jacket is a solid option, cut from waterproof waxed-cotton fabric. The style features four flap pockets, a snap-tab throat latch, adjustable cuff and a zip closure. It’s also 33 percent off at Nordstrom right now, so you can save before the seasons change. — John Zientek

Anker PowerPort Elite 2 Ports Wall AdapterSave $20: The 24-watt wall adapter takes up one wall outlet and can charge two devices, but it’s more than that. Its top USB port is equipped with PowerIQ technology, which means it can fast-charge my iPhone X. While that’s happening, I can use the other port to charge my MacBook Pro. (It’s powerful enough charge my MacBook Pro while I’m not using it. If I’m using the MacBook Pro, it’ll basically just keep the laptop at the same battery level.)

The Anker PowerPort Elite 2 Ports Wall Adapter usually goes for $30, but today it’s one of Amazon’s Deals of the Day. Pick it up for just over $7. — Tucker Bowe

Bose SoundSport Free Truly Wireless EarbudsSave $50: The landscape for truly wireless earbuds has gotten seriously competitive, so much so that earbuds with the best sound and most prestige are becoming more accessible. Case in point: Bose. The audio giant has dropped the price of its first truly wireless earbuds, the Bose SoundSport Free, from $250 to $200, pulling them within touching distance of the $159 that Apple’s AirPods continue to go for. — Tucker Bowe

Timex x Todd Snyder Ironman Digital WatchSave 30%: If you’re into throwback digital watches, don’t miss out on the Timex x Todd Snyder Ironman watch. This reissue was first developed in 1984 in partnership with the Ironman triathlon and features 200-meter water resistance, an Indiglo night light, a 100-hour chronograph, a 99-lap counter and a 24-hour countdown time. Though the contemporary model features an enlarged face and dial, it’s just as lightweight and durable as the original. Better yet, it’s 30% off right now. — John Zientek

The North Face End of Season SaleSave 30%: The North Face is holding its end-of-season sale, which offers 30% off its full range of winter apparel. Among that crowd is the Ventrix, an award-winning synthetic insulation jacket. — Tanner Bowden

Urban Outfitters Home GoodsSave an Additional 40%: Long a home to the quirky and eccentric, Urban Outfitters’s selection of home goods is surprisingly centered. And also cheap, especially on days like today where you can take an additional 40 percent off sale items.

We’re talking a $480 modernist coffee table for $240, a $70 industrial wall shelf for $24 and a $675 rustic mango wood platform bed for all of $250. Now go shop for yourself.

Bonobos EssentialsSave an Additional 50%: The time to stock up on wardrobe basics has arrived. Beginning today and running through the weekend, Bonobos is offering 50% off all current sale items using code FIFTY at checkout. Bonobos is an NYC-based maker of good quality clothing essentials, and with some items discounted up to 80% off (check out the Shearling Collar Bomber), these are seriously high-value cops. — Will Price

Fisher Space Pen Co. AG7 OriginalSave 20%: Fisher’s AG7 Original pen is special for a couple reasons. It’s made in the USA, functions in temperatures from -30 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit and also performs at any angle, even upside down. But you’d probably be most impressed by the fact that it’s the only pen to have ever made it to the moon; it was selected by NASA to accompany the early Apollo astronauts to outer space and has been used on every manned space flight since. And, right now, it’s 20 percent off at Kaufmann Mercantile with the code INBLOOM. — Jack Seemer

Blanc Creatives Carbon Steel SkilletSave 20%: If you’ve been reading Gear Patrol lately you’d know we’re feeling carbon steel cookware, and the folks at Blanc Creatives represent the best a pan can get. The Charlottesville forge uses pressed-out, thick-gauge steel then hammers each by hand into its final shape. They look almost as good as they cook.

Save 20 percent on a Blanc piece (or this very pretty knife roll) now during Kaufmann Mercantile’s pre-spring sale with code INBLOOM. — Will Price

Vault by Vans OG Old Skool LX SneakersSave $32: Vault by Vans gives the brand’s iconic shoes a premium upgrade. For example, this low-top Old Skool features a tasteful green-on-green nubuck upper along with the iconic rubber waffle outsole. And right now, you can save $32 on this versatile style at Need Supply Co. — that’s essentially the same price as the non-luxe version. — John Zientek

A.P.C. Leonard Chelsea BootSave $170: Understated leather Chelsea boots look good with just about anything in your closet. You can pair them with jeans, chinos or slacks; you can wear them on a lazy weekend or at the office. French brand A.P.C. makes a great option called the Leonard Chelsea boot that features YKK zippers instead of the normal elastic side-panels. With a suede upper and quality Portuguese construction, these are a perfect fit for any wardrobe — not to mention, they’re $170 off. — John Zientek
